How can you tell a strong acid/base from a weak acid/base just by looking at its chemical formula?
How can you tell a strong acid/base from a weak acid/base just by looking at its chemical formula?
Im trying to figure out the difference between weak acids/bases from strong acids/bases in my chem class. I know that strong acids/bases ionize completely, while on the other hand, weak acids only partially ionize. If i take two chemicals like HCL and HC2H3O2, how will i tell which one is a strong acid or weak acid just looking at their chemical formulas? Thx for the help.
How did the acid rain accord manage to reduce acid rain?
How did the acid rain accord manage to reduce acid rain?
I know the Acid Rain Accord that was signed by former Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney and formre president of US, George Bush reduced 40% of acid rain, but how did it do so? What did the Acid Rain Accord actually do, in order to reduce the amount of acid rain.
When titrating acids and bases, why do you rinse the pipette with acid solution before titration?
When titrating acids and bases, why do you rinse the pipette with acid solution before titration?
Before you but the acid that you are using for the titration, you first rinse with water for obvious reasons, then you rinse with an acid acid solution (or the same acid solution that you are using? I don't know).
So why would you do this??
I had to do this for an experiment I conducted in class, the instructions said to do this. I am not sure of the reasoning behind it.
